AI Technical Summary
A single UAV control station cannot accurately locate and effectively jam high-end UAVs when they use high-gain directional antennas or phased array antennas for directional narrow-beam transmission of telemetry and control links. The jamming effect is limited, especially when the signal reception in the back lobe direction is weak or the UAV's position is unknown.

By deploying multiple UAV control stations in the controlled area, the equivalent baseband channel fading coefficient, complex signal and noise information are used to estimate the UAV's position information and coordinate positioning. Combined with the direction finding algorithm and the coordinated transmission of interference signals, effective interference to the telemetry and control link and satellite navigation link is achieved.
It has achieved accurate positioning and effective interference of high-end UAVs within the controlled area, improved the accuracy of UAV position determination and interference effect, reduced spectrum pollution to the wide-area electromagnetic space, and met policy constraints.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of drone control technology, and in particular to a regional drone control method and device based on distributed multi-station collaboration. Background Technology
[0002] The UAV control station involved in this patent application mainly has target positioning and target jamming functions. The target positioning function is mainly achieved through radio wave direction finding based on a multi-antenna array; the target jamming function is mainly achieved through interference with the telemetry and control link and the satellite navigation link.
[0003] Communication between low-cost UAVs and ground control stations is primarily achieved through omnidirectional antennas. As long as the power of the UAV telemetry and control link signal received by the UAV control station is above the receiver sensitivity, the UAV's orientation angle can be determined using multi-antenna direction-finding algorithms (e.g., Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm, Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariance Techniques (ESPRIT) algorithm). After positioning is completed, the interference signal emitted by the UAV control station enters the UAV telemetry and control link receiving module or the satellite navigation link receiving module, which can reduce the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the telemetry and control link or satellite navigation link receiver. When the SNR is lower than the demodulation threshold, the UAV telemetry and control link or satellite navigation link can be effectively blocked.
[0004] High-end UAVs and ground control stations are equipped with high-gain directional antennas or even phased array antennas. The telemetry and control link between them uses directional narrow-beam transmission to improve link gain and received signal quality. If the UAV control station is within the narrow-beam coverage area between the UAV and the ground control station, it can effectively locate and jam the target. When the control station is located between the UAV and the ground station, the UAV's transmitted signal enters the control station along its main lobe (the direction of maximum signal strength). The control station can effectively locate the UAV using direction-finding algorithms and then transmit jamming signals along the UAV's main lobe direction to effectively interfere with the UAV's telemetry and control link receiver. Of course, since the main lobe of the satellite navigation link signal faces space, the jamming effect of the UAV control station's jamming signal entering the satellite navigation link receiver from different directions is not significantly different. When the control station is within the extended coverage area of the UAV's beam, the UAV's transmitted signal enters the control station along its main lobe. The control station can effectively locate the UAV using direction-finding algorithms and then transmit jamming signals along the UAV's main lobe direction to effectively interfere with the UAV's telemetry and control link receiver. If the UAV control station is outside the main beam coverage area between the UAV and the ground control station, it cannot effectively locate and jam the target. When the UAV transmits a signal along the back lobe (the direction of least signal strength) into the control station, the received signal is very weak and likely does not reach the receiver's sensitivity, making effective signal reception impossible. Even if the sensitivity threshold is exceeded, the low signal-to-noise ratio will affect the accuracy of the direction-finding algorithm, making accurate determination of the UAV's position impossible. During the jamming phase, even with prior information about the UAV's position, the jamming effect achieved by the jamming signal transmitted by the control station along the back lobe direction into the UAV telemetry and control link receiver is very limited. Due to the attenuation effect of the back lobe on the jamming signal, effectively blocking the telemetry and control link signal requires transmitting a jamming signal with extremely high power, which places high demands on the power amplifier and RF link capabilities of the control station, making it difficult to achieve. Even if achieved, it would cause significant spectrum pollution to the electromagnetic field over a wide area, subjecting it to policy constraints. Furthermore, since accurate information about the drone's location is not available in practice, the main lobe of the satellite navigation link interference signal emitted by the drone control station is not aligned with the drone, which weakens the interference signal strength entering the drone's satellite navigation link and reduces the interference radius of the satellite navigation link.
[0005] Direction finding and positioning of UAVs is achieved through signals transmitted from the UAV to the ground station, not signals transmitted from the ground station to the UAV. Interference with the UAV's telemetry and control link is achieved by interfering with signals transmitted from the ground station to the UAV, not signals transmitted from the UAV to the ground station. Interference with satellite navigation links primarily involves interfering with signals transmitted from navigation satellites (GPS, BeiDou, GLONASS, Galileo) to the UAV's navigation receiver.
[0006] Based on the above analysis, when high-end drones entering the drone control area use high-gain directional antennas or even phased array antennas for directional narrow-beam transmission of the telemetry and control link, a single drone control station cannot achieve accurate positioning and effective interference of the drones. Summary of the Invention

[0039] Assume the signal-to-noise ratio threshold of the direction-finding algorithm is set to... If Signal-to-noise ratio of a distributed drone control station Then, based on the ranking, the intersection point of the drone's heading angle measured by the two drone control stations with the highest signal-to-noise ratio is selected as the coordinate estimate of the drone's position information, such as... Figure 10 As shown. From Figure 10 As can be seen, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the distributed drone control stations is ranked as follows: B has the highest SNR, followed by C, and then A has the lowest. The coordinates where the azimuth angles measured by B and C intersect are the intersection of the two red dashed lines. This shows that the positioning coordinates are relatively accurate relative to the drone's true position. If the two highest-ranked azimuth angles are not selected, and instead the coordinates where the azimuth angles measured by B and A intersect (the intersection of the red and green dashed lines) are chosen as the estimated drone position coordinates, the deviation will be significant, making subsequent interference with the drone much more difficult. If there is a distributed drone control station with a SNR... Therefore, only the direction information of the UAV can be obtained, not its coordinate information. The next step, interfering with the UAV's telemetry and control link and navigation link, will be carried out by the UAV control station that meets the signal-to-noise ratio requirements, such as... Figure 11 As shown.
[0040] from Figure 11 As can be seen from the data, only the signal-to-noise ratio of distributed drone control stations A meets the requirements, and its direction is represented by a red dashed line. The drone is basically in this direction. The signal-to-noise ratios of distributed drone control stations B and C do not meet the requirements, and their azimuth angles are represented by green dashed lines. The intersection of their azimuth angles with the azimuth angle of A is far from the drone's true coordinates, making it impossible to effectively determine the drone's position. Subsequent interference with the drone cannot be based on the intersection coordinates and can only be carried out based on the azimuth angle of A and implemented by distributed drone control station A.
[0041] After determining the coordinates or direction of the UAV's location through the above steps, it is necessary to interfere with the UAV's telemetry and control link and satellite navigation link. If the UAV's coordinates are obtained, the signal-to-noise ratio of the distributed UAV control station should be selected.

The interference to the telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C) link and satellite navigation link is similar to the above formula, except that the direction and angle information is... This refers to the direction and angle information of the drone estimated by the distributed drone control station based on the received telemetry and control link signals.
[0044] As can be seen, this invention realizes a regional drone control method based on distributed multi-station collaboration. The distributed drone control station deploys multiple drone control stations in the controlled area, so that the signals emitted by drones entering the controlled area will always be received by some drone control stations. Then, through collaborative positioning, the coordinate information or direction information of the drone's position can be obtained. Based on the drone's position information, the multi-station collaborative transmission of interference signals can effectively interfere with the telemetry and control link and the satellite navigation link, thereby achieving the purpose of countering illegal drones in the controlled area.
[0045] Example 2 High-end drones and ground control stations are equipped with high-gain directional antennas or even phased array antennas. The telemetry and control link between them uses directional narrow-beam transmission to improve link gain and received signal quality. If the drone control station is within the narrow-beam coverage area between the drone and the ground control station, it can effectively perform target localization and jamming. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown. In Figure 2In this system, the UAV control station is located between the UAV and the ground station. The UAV transmits signals that enter the control station along its main lobe (the direction of strongest signal). The control station can effectively locate the UAV using direction-finding algorithms, and then transmits jamming signals along the UAV's main lobe direction to effectively interfere with the UAV's telemetry and control link receiver. However, since the main lobe of the satellite navigation link signal faces space, the jamming effect of the UAV control station's jamming signal entering the satellite navigation link receiver from different directions is not significantly different. Figure 3 In this scenario, the UAV control station is located within the extended coverage area of the UAV's beam. The UAV's transmitted signal enters the control station along its main lobe. The control station can effectively locate the UAV using direction-finding algorithms, and then transmit jamming signals along the UAV's main lobe direction to effectively interfere with the UAV's telemetry and control link receiver. If the control station is located outside the main beam coverage area between the UAV and the ground control station, then the control station cannot effectively locate and jam the target. Figure 4 As shown. In Figure 4 In this scenario, the UAV transmits a signal that enters the UAV control station along the back lobe (the direction of least signal strength). Due to the weak signal, it is highly unlikely to reach the receiver's sensitivity, making effective signal reception impossible. Even if the sensitivity threshold is exceeded, the low signal-to-noise ratio will affect the accuracy of the direction-finding algorithm, preventing accurate determination of the UAV's position. During the interference phase, even with prior information about the UAV's position, the interference effect achieved by the interference signal transmitted by the UAV control station along the back lobe direction is very limited. Due to the attenuation effect of the back lobe on the interference signal, effectively blocking the telemetry and control link signal requires transmitting an interference signal with extremely high power, which places high demands on the power amplifier and RF link capabilities of the UAV control station, making it difficult to achieve. Even if achieved, it would cause significant spectrum pollution in the electromagnetic field over a wide area, subject to policy constraints. Furthermore, since accurate information about the UAV's position is not available in practice, the main lobe of the satellite navigation link interference signal transmitted by the UAV control station is not aligned with the UAV, weakening the interference signal strength entering the UAV's satellite navigation link and reducing the interference radius.
[0046] Note: Direction finding and positioning of a UAV is achieved by transmitting signals from the UAV to the ground station, not the other way around. Interference with the UAV's telemetry and control link is achieved by interfering with signals transmitted from the ground station to the UAV, not the other way around. Interference with the satellite navigation link primarily involves interfering with signals transmitted from navigation satellites (GPS, BeiDou, GLONASS, Galileo) to the UAV's navigation receiver.
[0047] Based on the above analysis, when high-end drones entering the drone control area use high-gain directional antennas or even phased array antennas for directional narrow-beam transmission of the telemetry and control link, a single drone control station cannot achieve accurate positioning and effective interference. To address this practical need, this patent proposes a regional drone control technology and method based on the collaboration of multiple distributed drone control stations, which can achieve accurate positioning and effective interference of high-end drones within the control area.
[0048] When high-end drones entering the drone control area use high-gain directional antennas or even phased array antennas for directional narrow-beam transmission of the telemetry and control link, multiple distributed drone control stations are deployed in the control area to work together to accurately locate and effectively interfere with high-end drones in the control area.
[0049] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the circular area represents the drone control zone. The original single drone control station is referred to here as a centralized drone control station, located at node D. Assume that three distributed drone control stations are deployed, located at nodes A, B, and C respectively. Each distributed drone control station uses a phased array antenna with a horizontal scanning range of 120°, thus achieving 360° coverage without blind spots.
[0050] Step 1: Based on prior information, the antenna arrays of distributed UAV control stations A, B, and C receive the telemetry and control link signals on the UAV telemetry and control link frequency band and then calculate the direction of arrival of the UAV signal using a direction-finding algorithm.
[0051] Step 2: Based on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the telemetry and control link signals received by the three distributed UAV control stations, and provided that the SNR threshold is met, select the intersection point of the radio wave directions calculated by the two distributed UAV control stations with the strongest SNR as the coordinate estimate of the UAV's position information; if only one UAV control station receives a telemetry and control link signal with an SNR that meets the requirements, then only output the UAV's direction information with that control station as the base point as the direction estimate of the UAV's position information.
[0052] Step 3: If the coordinates of the UAV's location information are available, the three distributed UAV control stations will align the receiving beams of their antenna arrays with the UAV's location. Based on the signal-to-noise ratio of the signal received on the telemetry and control link frequency band, they will determine whether the signal exceeds a preset threshold as a channel quality assessment.
[0053] Step 4: If the coordinates of the UAV's location information are estimated, the distributed UAV control station that receives a signal-to-noise ratio exceeding a preset threshold on the telemetry and control link frequency band will transmit an interference signal on the telemetry and control link frequency band, with the signal transmission direction aligned with the estimated UAV position; if the direction of the UAV's location information is estimated, the control station that serves as the direction reference point will transmit an interference signal on the telemetry and control link frequency band, with the signal transmission direction aligned with the UAV's direction.
[0054] Step 5: If the coordinates of the UAV's location information are estimated, the distributed UAV control station transmits an interference signal on the satellite navigation frequency band, with the signal transmission direction aligned with the estimated UAV location; if the direction of the UAV's location information is estimated, the control station, which serves as the direction reference point, transmits an interference signal on the satellite navigation frequency band, with the signal transmission direction aligned with the UAV's direction.
[0055] By dividing the scenarios into efficient, inefficient, and ineffective scenarios for centralized drone control stations, the relative advantages of distributed drone control stations are analyzed.
[0056] like Figure 6 The diagram illustrates an efficient operating scenario for a centralized UAV control station. Centralized UAV control station D and distributed UAV control station B can effectively receive the telemetry and control link signals transmitted by the UAV through its main lobe. Distributed UAV control station C receives relatively lower quality signals, while distributed UAV control station A receives even lower quality signals. Although the centralized UAV control station can effectively interfere with the UAV in this scenario, the distributed UAV control station, through coordinated interference, possesses superior interference performance at the same transmission power.
[0057] like Figure 7 The diagram illustrates an inefficient operating scenario for centralized UAV control stations. Centralized UAV control station D and distributed UAV control station B can only receive telemetry and control (TT&C) link signals transmitted by UAVs through their back lobes (not the weakest signal direction). Distributed UAV control station A receives relatively better quality TT&C link signals, while distributed UAV control station C receives even better signals. In this scenario, centralized UAV control station D struggles to accurately obtain the UAV's directional information needed to interfere with the UAV, and effective interference requires extremely high power, resulting in very low efficiency. Distributed UAV control stations, through the collaborative work of nodes A and C, can obtain more accurate UAV position information. Collaborative interference from nodes A and C can effectively disrupt the UAV's TT&C link, while collaborative work from nodes A, B, and C can effectively disrupt the UAV's satellite navigation link.
[0058] like Figure 8As shown, this illustrates a scenario where a centralized UAV control station is ineffective. Centralized UAV control station D can only receive telemetry and control (TT&C) link signals transmitted by UAVs through the back lobe (almost the weakest signal direction). Distributed UAV control station A receives TT&C link signals transmitted from the main lobe, which are of very high quality. Even if the TT&C link signals received by distributed UAV control stations B and C are of poor quality (received signals are closer to the back lobe), failing to meet the signal-to-noise ratio threshold and thus unable to determine direction using direction-finding algorithms, UAV control station A can still accurately determine the UAV's direction and effectively interfere with the TT&C link and satellite navigation link.

N A distributed drone control station is deployed every 360° / N angles on a circle. By adjusting the phase control beam scanning range of the antenna array of the distributed drone control station, the beam scanning range of each distributed drone control station is controlled within the normal direction of the antenna array. Within the range.

If Signal-to-noise ratio of a distributed drone control station Then, based on the ranking, the intersection point of the drone's heading angle measured by the two drone control stations with the highest signal-to-noise ratio is selected as the coordinate estimate of the drone's position information, such as... Figure 10 As shown.
[0064] from Figure 10 As can be seen, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the distributed drone control stations is ranked as follows: B has the highest SNR, followed by C, and then A has the lowest. The coordinates where the azimuth angles measured by B and C intersect are the intersection of the two red dashed lines. This shows that the positioning coordinates are relatively accurate relative to the drone's true position. If the two highest-ranked azimuth angles were not selected, and instead the coordinates where the azimuth angles measured by B and A intersect (the intersection of the red and green dashed lines) were chosen as the estimated drone position coordinates, the deviation would be significant, making subsequent interference with the drone much more difficult.
[0065] If there is a signal-to-noise ratio of a distributed drone control station Therefore, only the direction information of the UAV can be obtained, not its coordinate information. The next step, interfering with the UAV's telemetry and control link and navigation link, will be carried out by the UAV control station that meets the signal-to-noise ratio requirements, such as... Figure 11 As shown.
[0066] from Figure 11 As can be seen from the data, only the signal-to-noise ratio of distributed drone control stations A meets the requirements, and its direction is represented by a red dashed line. The drone is basically in this direction. The signal-to-noise ratios of distributed drone control stations B and C do not meet the requirements, and their azimuth angles are represented by green dashed lines. The intersection of their azimuth angles with the azimuth angle of A is far from the drone's true coordinates, making it impossible to effectively determine the drone's position. Subsequent interference with the drone cannot be based on the intersection coordinates and can only be carried out based on the azimuth angle of A and implemented by distributed drone control station A.
[0067] After determining the coordinates or direction of the UAV's location through the above steps, it is necessary to interfere with the UAV's telemetry and control link and satellite navigation link.
[0068] If the coordinates of the drone's location are obtained, the signal-to-noise ratio of the distributed drone control station should be selected. A collection of drone control stations (Note: signal-to-noise ratio threshold here) It determines which drone control stations are involved in interfering with drones based on the channel fading state, using the aforementioned signal-to-noise ratio threshold.

[0069] The interference signal to the satellite navigation link is similar to that in equation (6), except that: and Bandwidth coverage for satellite navigation link bandwidth, This is the center frequency of the satellite navigation link.

The interference to the telemetry and control link and the satellite navigation link is similar to that in equation (6), except that the direction and angle information is... This refers to the direction and angle information of the drone estimated by the distributed drone control station based on the received telemetry and control link signals.
[0071] High-end drones and ground control stations are equipped with high-gain directional antennas or even phased array antennas. The telemetry and control link between the two uses directional narrow beam transmission. If a single drone control station is used, the drone control station may not be within the effective coverage range of the drone's transmission beam, which would prevent the drone control station from effectively locating the drone and thus from effectively interfering with it.
[0072] Distributed drone control stations deploy multiple drone control stations within a controlled area, ensuring that signals emitted by drones entering the controlled area are always received by some of these stations. Through collaborative positioning, the coordinates or direction information of the drone's location can be obtained. Based on the drone's location information, multi-station collaborative transmission of jamming signals can effectively interfere with the telemetry and control link and satellite navigation link, thereby achieving the goal of countering illegal drones in the controlled area.
